The Friendly Mermaid watercolor PDF cross stitch pattern
This cross stitch pattern is made from watercolor illustration.
The size of the pattern is 80w * 150h stitches. Finished size depends on which count of fabric you choose. For 28 ct evenweave (equals 14 ct Aida) it would be 14.5* 27.2 cm (5.7 * 10.7 inches), for 32 ct evenweave - 12.7 * 23.8 cm (5 * 9.4 inches).
PDF file includes pattern key for DMC floss and 4 types of pattern: black&white symbols, black&white symbols without backstitch lines, symbols with color behind and solid color.
Also, there is an extra PDF file with backstitch instructions. Hope it will make the backstitching much easier!
This pattern has some backstitching, French knots, petite stitches (1-over-1), quarter (fractional) stitches, French knots and half cross stitches (besides full cross stitches). And besides 28 usual DMC colors and 9 Kreinik colors, it also has 21 blended colors.
I highly recommend to use cotton or linen evenweave for it, NOT Aida fabric (because of petite stitches).
On the last picture I show the example of using this pattern.
Happy stitching!
